Was great to see your Stencyl mods on Wednesday night. I hope you’re excited to finally get started on your main projects for Jeuxly!

Assignment

For next week, here’s what we’d like you to do:

1. Investigate some different game engines

…for example: GameMaker, Adventure Game Studio, Ren’py, Unity—and make a firm decision about which one you’d like to use for your final project. Let us know what you choose, ideally by Sunday, and we can talk about funding options.

2. Start your game!

Your goal for next Wednesday should be to get at least one interaction working. It can be as simple as having a character that moves, or a button to click on.

If you have any questions or trouble at all, please do not hesitate to contact Cecily. Have fun!

Upcoming Work Sessions

Mentors will be available at the following open work sessions at Miso:

Wednesday, July 25 following presentation (8 – 10 p.m.)

Saturday, July 28 following workshop (5 – 9 p.m.)

You are free to post anything you’d like. This week, you might want to post a sketch, or a quick note about your game ideas or thought process behind choosing an engine. You can also update your profile with a picture and short bio.
